dowitcher flock

[John Chardine]

Migratory flock of Short-billed Dowitchers seen in Prince Edward Island National Park this fall. Hope I have the ID right! If you look closely there's a smaller shorebird in amongst the dowitchers. Unfortunately it's flying in front of another bird so it's hard to see and ID.

Anything you do John is o.k. with me, love the exposure, have to learn how to do a better job at shooting up and into the sun and blue sky, nicely presented.
